I really, really, really need some new (free) games!
Does anyone know of any good ones?

Preferably RPGs, but (most) other games are good too.
They need to be either compatible with WinXP or Ubuntu.

HELP CURE MY BORDEM (and get some rep in the process)! :p

FREE games nub.

It's not quite in your RPG market, but here's a good change-up game if you need a break from that genre:

Trackmania

Go to "downloads" and get TM Nations Forever, the free version. The free version has plenty to do, however, and supports online play. People design some crazy race maps, heh.
 

Tru_Power22

You can change this now in User CP.

Err... free games?

If you're looking for free games, I'm afraid you won't find many genuine 'free' games. [del]You could torrent some proper games[/del], but that's also known as piracy :( I recommend heading down to your games store and checking out the 'budget' sections, there are some amazing games for really low prices that have been labelled 'budget' (like evolva, startopia, original war etc...)

I don't really know of (m)any good free games (other than a few flash games from Kongregate and Armor Games :p) but of the games that Avaleirrra has listed that I've played, it is very hard to go wrong with those (although WoW certainly isn't cheap so I'd stray away from that unless you really want to burn some cash :D). Most (if not all) of those should be available in a video game shop as budget titles, so you could probably pick them up fairly cheaply.

CS:S would probably be my most recommended of that list since it'll keep you going for ages, I'm not sure what the multiplayer scene for CoD1 is like since I 'misplaced' the discs years ago :<

There's also the Unreal games. Depending on where abouts you are living, you should be able to pick it up for a very nice sum. I got the Anthology (which includes Unreal + Return to Na Pali, Unreal II, Unreal Tournament GOTY Edition and Unreal Tournament 2004 Editor's Choice Edition) for €15, so I can't imagine it being more expensive than 20 or 25 euro in other regions (which still isn't half bad since you'd get 4 fantastic games from it).

Please try to remain on the topic of Free, "Legally Free", Games, meaning you don't have to break piracy laws to get them.

Thanks,
Miz

Though I think your selection of Games, besides MMORPGs (Which you will just get addicted to and pay them for the expansion or membership, etc.) and Flash Games is kind of limited, but yet again I play old fashion PC Games and that is rarely so my opinion is probably limited.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
